Thank god it’s Fridaaay! Friday, the happiest day of the week- well, at least for me. However, now that it’s the summer time everyday is like Friday. Oh those nonchalant warm breezy days, when the sun rays shine longer than the lights of the moon… I hope they would last forever. Overhearing the majority moan and groan about the fact that those golden days will soon be over makes me realize how close I am to sitting back at my desk in September with a pile of work laid in front of me. But why is it easier for us to close our eyes in front of the present, missing out the bright side of our lives in a blink? It’s only July. So many more things to come, to look forward to. So many more memories to be made. Why can’t we take a sip from the glass that is half full- and not empty. Our society prefers to dramatize about our everyday doings, turning the tinniest obstacles into severe complications and dilemmas which indeed prevent us from living how we would have desired to instead. We ignore the things that actually matter, the things that we want. After building mountains of worries, doubts and fears of things that ‘could’ happen we immediately decide to throw away our dreams. Then what’s the point of it all? Ask yourself.

And back to the bright side 🙂 We might not have cookies, but the weekend is sure to come. So enjoy the rest of your awesome Friday!

Aaand I’m back to my little writing journal! Ironically, today happens to be Bleu de Blonde’s one year anniversary! Crazy, right?! It’s been a year I have been bothering you guys with my bizarre posts, and having to think that last year the same person sat behind this very computer, typing up her idea on a virtual screen is absolutely unbelievable. A year filled with a whole load of travelling to the most incredible places I have visited; Russia, America, Greece, Andorra, France, Spain and Italy- those will be the memories I will never forget. Hopefully, this year will be just as great with much more to experience and explore.

As to my last post, 5 months and counting, I would like to share with you my recent discovery of the country that we should all praise for the existence of pizza, pasta and gelato ♥ Italy and its capital Rome- the home to the Vatican as well as landmark art and ancient ruins. Its every street spirited with the energy of a once most powerful empire, every house a well-known museum or a remarkable piece of art, and every individual a fashion icon. Personally, I was swayed by the power of gelato. Never thought ice-cream could taste so good! A recommendation I should make would be, San Crispino on the street of Trevi (pretty close to the fountain of Trevi), the place offers tons of flavours to choose from starting from the basics (which are not any less gorgeously delicious) to the very unusual ones like pizza and liquorice! Another place to try out would be Hedera, which is 5min walk from the Vatican City, selling its finest gelato in cannoli cones and of course the Magnum Pleasure Store placed in the centre of Rome. Seems like a perfect place for me, combing delish food and the beauty of the contrast in landscapes…

So, my second day in Moscow wasn’t less exciting. As well as my second delicious breakfast of the ‘legendary’ pancake with chocolate filling and dried grapes. This time we decided to take the metro and journey to VDNH Park, where you can leisurely walk around the picturesque constructions and gold statues, ride around the park on bikes, go to galleries and simply have a good time. One of the most interesting pieces of the modern art was the Cityscope. An asymmetrical glass figure tanned with nacreous coating- which I used to take very unusual pictures and selfies in.

After a long walk, we headed to The Bubble Mania cafe where you can create your own cold tea with a choice of juicy bubbles and very unexpectedly met with an American anchorman on RussiaToday 😀 Later, at the Atrium Mall I was over the moon to purchase a whole set of makeup foundation in MAC, tried an absolutely yummy ice cream- yogurt, watched 22nd Jump Street and dined at a Japanese restaurant. A day full of activities, very tiring but absolutely moving and memorable. Now I’ll be voyaging to my home town to enjoy the home sweet home, cozy life. See you soon!
